One thing I find so disappointing is the very basic career mode.

In all honesty i would not touch FIFA 14 on the Xbox One or PS4, trust me this year it will be a straight port from the "old gen" with a few graphical enhancements. EA will know this time round their biggest markets will still be the 360/PS3. Next gen wont really be established until March at the earliest, and because of the high quality of games and usefulness of this current gen imo it will take longer even longer for the new gen to establish itself firmly, only by FIFA 15 would it make sense to make this the "main" version.

OP i am hoping also one day for an amazing football game, but really until either PES or FIFA really try to shake things up we are gonna be stuck with the small upgrades each year. Maybe PES will take off the gloves this year with it being produced at a British studio rather than a Japanese one, well only have a week or so and maybe a couple of demos to check out.

OP, totally agree. FIFA does the bare minimum to make you think it's worth buying the latest version.

They purposely refrain from giving 100% and making a great game for the simple reason that, if they did, people wouldn't buy further versions as they couldn't be improved upon.

Basically, it's a scam. The sooner there is serious competition to FIFA and PES, the sooner we'll have a great football game.

apparently the gameplay on the new gen consoles is a lot, lot better and natural.

one things for sure, i won't be getting fifa 14 on my ps3

Tu it will be the same - not enough incentive to make any big changes regardless of what EA execs say. Few hundred thousand next gen Vs several million old gen both with rrp of the same............no brainer to me. Just have a look at new version of FIFA on Wii and Vita to see all the improvements EA put into games where the figures are expected to be low

With fifa being the dominant football game on the market, pes isnt even considered as competition anymore hence the lack of innovative and improved features from fifa, as they know their fan base will choose them over pes. I really hope pes steps up their game so fifa can match theirs and then we the consumers will be benefit from this.

What would be really good is if Pro Evo and FIFA only released games every two years, and instead just did a 12 month patch for all the players, kits etc.

That way the developers would have time to actually DEVELOP the game and make genuine improvements, rather than giving it a spit polish every 12 months.

Ideally they would release their games in alternate years, however the financial benefits they get from rinsing teenagers each year probably negates this from ever being a possibility.

Football Manager should do the same IMO.

If FIFA and PES could feasibly be released every 3 months, they'd do it. It's all about making money, rather than making great games.

True, that's why I won't buy any EA games

I don't have the willpower to not buy the games. If I had any sense, I'd wait a year and then buy it for £10 from CeX.

Pes are not releasing a next gen pes 14, they are going all out to beat Fifa this year. New game engine etc. IM DONE WITH EA! Its a con and a very obvious one.

Im getting Pes this year and I for one hope its Konami's "fifa 10 moment"
